Meet the fabulous Rachel Rosenthal! We met several years ago at the Sarasota improv Festival when she was part of the North Coast Hip Hop Improv! She is so fun and generous and we did an online class teaching me the basics of Hip Hop way before the pandemic.! Today, she resides in Portland OR where she teaches and performs at Kickstand Comedy, where she founded and wrote their Musical Improv program curriculum. She is also a cast member of the lauded improvised Elizabethan comedy, Love, Shakespeare — with whom she performs monthly. Rachel has studied at Upright Citizens Brigade (UCB), The PIT, ImprovBoston and elsewhere - with Joe Bill, Dave Razowsky, Asaf Ronen, Will Luera, Jon Gabrus, and Jill Bernard to name few! She specializes in free-form and musical improv, and has showcased these talents in numerous comedy festivals including Chicago, Vancouver, Iceland, San Francisco, Charleston, Boston, DCM, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Sarasota, and the Women in Comedy Festivals among others. Rachel is an award winning improv instructor who has led workshops all over the world from Barcelona and India to Iceland and Hawaii. In 2014, The PIT awarded Rachel with the “Instructor of the Year Award” for her work with level one improv students. The Huffington Post once called Rachel an “improv whirlwind” after a performance with Rachel Dratch. In 2015, she started her Corporate Improv Training business - which she continues to run today. Rachel is also the Founder of (former) Bridesmaiding.com. She loves greyhounds (the dog, not the bus), bagels and drinking wine outside. Rachel has over 25 years experience as an improv instructor and is beloved by her students! For more info on Rachel check out the following links!
